The morning after returning from the Star Kingdom Elkie woke up and got dressed for a run around the castle. 

When passing by Princess Yeeun's door she noticed that the princess was missing from her bed which caused a feeling of dread to overcome her. 

The knight quickly rushed back to her room to put her amour on and look for the princess. She frantically rode her horse through the woods worrying about who or what took the princess. 

"God I can't let anything happen to her. What would the king say?" 

While lost in her thoughts an arrow grazed past her face almost leaving a mark on her cheek.

 "Holy Elkie I'm so sorry I didn't know it was you." A hooded figure revealed themselves from the dense woods. 
 
Removing the hood the knight was grateful to see the familar face of the princess with a bow and arrow in her hand.

 "Of course!! It was part of training but I prefer a trusty sword." Elkie removed her hands and stood back.
 
 "Alright now you try aim it at that tree over there." Elkie pointed to a tree to the right of them just close enough for any novice to hit.
 
Yeeun took a deep breath in eager to impress her crush. She focused on the tree pulled back the arrow and let go sending the arrow into the bark of the tree. 

"Great job princess. We can work on thos more of you want but for now we should head back to the castle." 

Elkie smiled at the princess gathering up the arrows from the trees and handing them back to Yeeun.
